NIGP 15044: Lath, Wood

NIGP 15044 Lath, Wood is an Item code covering wood lath and related wood framing and finishing materials procured by state and local governments. Recent solicitation activity under this code remains sparse; the most substantive opportunity in the current dataset is architectural wood restoration services rather than commodity lath procurement, suggesting that state and local buying under this specific code may currently be limited or absorbed into broader construction and building-maintenance categories.

Events DC issued an RFQ (Solicitation 25S053) on July 14, 2026, for Architectural Woodwork Restoration Services across District of Columbia facilities, with responses due July 13, 2026 (note: the response date has passed). The scope encompasses restoration of approximately 27,000 square feet of paneling, 2,184 linear feet of handrails, and 225 doors across the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, Carnegie Library at Mt. Vernon Square, Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, and other Events DC properties, requiring stripping, stain blending, topcoating, and protective-coating application. The base contract runs October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, with four optional one-year renewals. Bidders must hold a minimum of five years' documented experience in exotic wood restoration and current Architectural Woodwork Institute certification. Events DC applies up to 12 preference points for qualified small and disadvantaged business enterprises, resident-owned businesses, and local manufacturing enterprises. No other recent commodity lath opportunities appear in the dataset; activity under this code warrants monitoring through state and local cooperative purchasing vehicles and RFQ channels serving construction and facilities management.
